1000000th visitor this week

Since my first post in December 2010 a lot has changed to the SharePains blog. SharePains wasn’t called SharePains and all my posts then were about SharePoint. 9 Years later I write about a lot more than just SharePoint. I never expected that 9 years later I would hit the 1000000th visitor. I’m not there yet though, but with just a few 1000 to go I would expect to hit the 1,000,000 this week.

Especially since late 2017 the site has been booming.

I would like to take this moment, to first of all thank all my regular visitors. I couldn’t have done this without you!

I’ve added a Blog Stats hit counter on my site. If you happen to see the 1,000,000. Take a screenshot and email it to contact @ sharepains.com I will find a way to thank you!

I wrote many posts about SharePoint, Microsoft Teams, Dynamics, Power BI, Microsoft Flow, Microsoft PowerApps and Azure.

Although a lot of my posts hit a lot of visitors the top 5 posts are all Microsoft Flow related:

1. Microsoft Flow – Filter queries in SharePoint Get items
2. Shed some light on arrays or collections in Microsoft Flow
3. Microsoft Flow – Filter queries in SharePoint Get items
4. Microsoft Flow – The hidden gems, are you aware of all of these?
5. Microsoft Flow – Working with Excel, Excel and Excel

It shows how popular the PowerPlatform has become.

But its not just about getting a lot of visitors. It’s also interesting to see that SharePains have covered almost all of the world. Over the last 9 years there are very few countries that haven’t seen the site yet.

Hopefully I will be able to continue writing my posts, about all my experiences with Microsoft technology for the years to come. Hopefully you will enjoy reading my posts as much as I enjoy writing them.
